Meryl Streep Gets Lifetime Achievement Award at Golden Globes

At the 2017 Golden Globes in Los Angeles Meryl Streep – one of America’s best ever screen actresses received a lifetime achievement award. Well deserved however some would argue that this achievement was somewhat tarnished when she used her acceptance speech as a soap box to attack Donald Trump. This was a bit of a trend on the night, however her tirade was by far the most vociferous and led Donald Trump to take to Twitter in response calling her “One of the most over-rated actresses in Hollywood”.

Everyone is entitled to an opinion however we feel that this political rhetoric is now going a bit over the top and somewhat overshadowed what was a great evening cumulating with the record-breaking haul of seven Golden Globes awarded to the nostalgic (and in our opinion Fantastic) musical La La Land.
